LigandTracer® monitors molecular interactions in real-time, right on your lab bench, with only a few preparatory steps and limited input.
The most common target is a cellular receptor expressed on the surface of living cells, but almost any interaction can be monitored as long as:
- You can label your ligand of interest
- Targets can be attached to a Petri dish
- The interaction occurs within minutes to hours
LigandTracer monitors interactions as they happen; detecting interaction properties that can easily be missed by using established endpoint methods such as ELISA. Data points are taken automatically at set intervals, allowing you to obtain in-depth information about the interaction that you’re studying.
